parents. >> we are living in a moment of wonder and possibility to prepare children in america. >> ainsley: steve is having breakfast with friends across the river. much anticipated gubernatorial race there "fox & friends" starts right now. serving up some coffee. and, remember, mornings are better with friends. >> ainsley: the attorney general for washington, d.c. has filed a lawsuit against the trump administration to end the national guard deployment in the capital. >> brian: here we go. the legal challenge comes after the president ordered the guard to remain in d.c. until novembe. >> lawrence: alexandria hoff is live with the details this morning. >> interesting those two announcements both came yesterday that the d.c. national guard would be continuing their time here in d.c. through the end of november. also that the city's attorney

general has filed suit because it continues political dance where have you democratic leaders here kind of flip-flopping on their take on having the federalization here. but, at the same time, we are seeing a lot of praise for falling crime rates. this was d.c.'s a.g. brian schwab said yesterday about this lawsuit no. american city should have the u.s. military particularly out-of-state military who have not accountable to the residents and untrained in local law enforcement policing and streets. d.c. today any other city tomorrow. filed this action to put an end to this illegal federal overreach attempt of d.c. to president's highly successful operations. take a look at those operations. we have got some new numbers here since august 7th. according to the white house, over 1800 arrests have been made. 60 known gang members have been arrested. including ms-13, tren de aragua members, five missing children have been recovered and 188

firearms have been seized. now, president trump has indicated in deploying the same kind of crime solution to cities like chicago, with the administration saying blue governors and mayors be making this ask. pritzker said if troops are sent we are heading to court. >> we will immediately go to court if national guard or other military troops are sent to deploy to the city of chicago. immediately go to court. so that's going to be our first line of defense is, getting a court to issue a tro or other injunction against that activity. >> governor pritzker he does anticipate this increased federal action is going to take place starting tomorrow and really that would be enhanced ice enforcement, guys. >> brian: thanks so much. so, he is saying i'm going to go to court to stop the crackdown on crime. i'm going to go to court to make sure the national guard. >> lawrence: what an idiot. >> brian: fbi and federal

officers don't do what they did in d.c., that's control crime, clean up the city and make people feel safer. i'm going to make sure that the homeless encampments stay intact, a threat to your kids as they go to school. and i think this is really risky for him. so he is the same guy who said i need the national guard because i got to make sure chicago is safe city for the dnc. same thing with the governor of new york. i got to make sure new york doesn't get national guard but you needed them in the subway? >> ainsley: essentially saying i love the violence so much more than i love donald trump. and because i hate donald trump so much, we're going to push the violence in our community. we refuse to clean it up. >> lawrence: it's so dumb on two reasons. first of all, you got the national guard there. they're doing the checkpoints, that's how they are getting a lot of the guns off the streets because they are checking these vehicles, they are see hog is going from street to street. also because you got all the feds there protecting the national monuments and everything, you surge those resources into the community, so the national guard picked up

those to protect the monuments. it's just not smart. take the win. >> brian: david axelrod from chicago, famously, he weighs in and just says listen, pritzker, this is not a good modify, stop thinking 2028. >> i would be careful about playing '28 politics on this issue because the right answer is we'll take all the help we can get as long as it's appropriate help. as long as it's stuff that will really help. i mean national guardsmen aren't even trained to do that work. they are not authorized to do that work. so, you know, send us the resources that we need. we want to work with you. if there are criminal -- if there are people doing violent crimes here who are illegal immigrants, we want them out of our city. we will work with you on that. >> brian: why the way help in 2028 say i was a governor. if you want to be a legitimate candidate work with the republican president when it would help my city and state. >> ainsley: every republican has been saying, every conservative,

even the moderates in d.c. if you ask them we went to the streets of chicago and they said we want the national guard, we need this. he is saying take all the help you can get. if you are seeing crime go down, zero homicides, what was it for like almost two weeks in a row in d.c. the numbers dropped dramatically, because it's working. policing works. >> lawrence: they also have to stop saying that the national guard is not trained for this. they are trained for this. secretary of defense used to do this same job. it was good enough for the democrats in chicago when they had the national guard there to handle the crowd, to handle control of the streets and the yearps for the national convention. don't tell us this talking point that they're not trained to do it. >> ainsley: isn't it more than just about the president. we saw that video in chicago at the gas station where everyone was walking into the gas station or parking lot while people were filling up these tanks with these big guns. if you have national guard out on the street those guys will pick the next gas station. they're not going to invade that one. it's more about presence.

>> brian: well, for those people who think that the president is not going to do it. like i watched that clown, that d.a. that philadelphia d.a. krasner, he actually made chicken noises to say the president's chickening out. the president chickening out of sending security forces into chicago which is the murder capital of the country. i can't get my head around it. meanwhile, the pentagon, if you think the president is backing off, the pentagon has approved the use of the chicago navy base for ice and possible military operations. so the president does want to make sure he doesn't deploy them and get them pulled back because of what happened with that san francisco ruling. but i just think that he is under pretty steady ground, so let's just see what the appeal looks like out in california before he puts them in chicago. in the meantime, go to new orleans. the governor wants you there governor landrieu wants you. even though the scandal-ridden mayor of new orleans doesn't, who cares? >> ainsley: let's go to portland, oregon. a perfect example of what is happening out there when you have these democratic leaders who refuse to let ice come in.

they are not working with ice at all. there have been protesters at this ice facility in portland, oregon, they rule rolled in a guillotine in front of the ice facility saying basically we want to cut your heads off. they are yelling: you are sad excuses for human beings. you guys are violent, cowardly pigs, demonstrators burned flags, they are clashing with law enforcement. this has been going on for months now. a lot of this since labor day. >> lawrence: look at them right here. this is the protesters throughout lighting the american flag on fire. this is the residents. [explosions] [bleep] [sirsirens. [turn that down! it's midnight. we, the people, need sleep! [chanting] >> brian: think about this. there is not a cop in sight. this is a chaotic city.

they say if you talk about real estate prices going down. talk about business fleeing. ladies and gentlemen, i give you, portland, oregon. that's the tyranny that the american people won't tolerate anymore. the people of portland are the few that are left. protesters that go there and do it. ice will do their job the best they can. how do you guillotine that's like walking around with a machete. >> steve: that's true. police haven't conducted an arrest in months. afraid of the pushback that's going to happen. politicians aren't doing anything as well. remember, this is the same city that has had lawlessness during the summer of love. >> ainsley: weren't they telling the police officers to stand down that we are a sanctuary city? >> brian: president sent federal officers in, he got ridiculed for that i imagine this won't be going on too much longer. the people of portland, have you to be embarrassed by the way you are being portrayed. meanwhile talk about what is happenings with ai. i think it's great that the

first lady is taking on this initiative addressing how students should handle it, the parameters that should be set up responsibly, but there is only very few experts in the world on ai, which is the fastest moving technology that we maybe ever experienced. all there yesterday outside of elon musk. >> ainsley: the ceos are there. you had cabinet secretaries there. the president and the first lady. melania trump. and they talked about the importance of ai in k through 12 and how we as parents need to be teaching our children. listen to what she said. >> we are living in a moment of wonder and it possibility to prepare children in america. cars now steer themselves through our cities. robots hold steady hands in operating room. and drones are a defining the future of war. every one of these advancements is powered by ai.

the robots are here. our future is no longer science fiction. as leaders and parents, we must manage ai's growth responsibly. during this primitive stage, it is our duty to treat ai as we would our own children, empowering, but watchful guidance. >> lawrence: i think that is great that the first lady is leading this conversation but one thing i appreciate about this administration, they don't demonize, you know, the business community. they bring them in. if they have an issue, they talk about it openly so we can see about it. and they want to be a part of the solution, not a part of the problem. so i think this is going to be great for the country. >> brian: i think there is going to be 10 meetings. they are going to have to together. zuckerberg, oracle, the head of google you have everybody there. elon musk, by the way, heard he was invited.

said he couldn't come. he had a conflict. >> lawrence: really? >> brian: mark zuckerberg, i know this good. competing and spending. this is like starting quarterback money to get the best technologists into their company. mark zuckerberg $100 million so they are competing. i hope on some level i'm all capitalists that they cooperate because they are competing with china at the same time, guys, got to be responsible, what's the downside of developing this technology. evil purposes criminal organizations, the mob drug cartels, how do we handle this and secure this? i like that the communication is happening. they all went around the table, including tim cook, and said, mr. president, thanks for doing. this thanks for getting everybody together. and there's a group think that i think has a role to play. >> ainsley: i like what they're also doing about keeping the kids safe from ai. they are really focused on that and putting these -- what's the word i'm looking for like barriers in place so that when

you. >> lawrence: guards. >> ainsley: guards, thank you. when you are a parent when you have your phone and child has their phone you can see if your child is on chatgpt or on gronk or one of the other ones and googling things that are not appropriate. you get to see those messages and then you can have conversations with your kids. can you even block certain things. >> brian: i love that david sacks is there, ai czar, in business with just about everybody at that table. and i think his approach is, you know, is he doing it for no money. picking up his family. goes 3,000 miles in washington. this is his version of service. >> lawrence: it's great for the country, scathing new revelations in the attempt to cover up the former president biden's mental decline. >> ainsley: madeleine rivera joins us live from washington. hey, maddy. >> good morning. andrew bates, former press secretary to president biden is appearing before the house oversight committee this morning. interstates a staunch and vocal defender of biden especially online. the 12th witness to speak with the panel. the committee is planning to

hold two more interviews in the coming weeks. notably with former white house press secretary karine jean-pierre and former white house chief of staff jeff zients. republicans are continuing to scrutinize biden's cognitive abilities in office. white house lawyers and the justice yementd unsure thousand enact the president's clemency grants final days in office. january 17th, biden commuted the sentence of nearly 2500 convicted of nonviolent drug charges. post debated over who to include in the pardons and how to modify their sentences came to a head on the evening of january 16th. internal emails obtained by the "new york post" show white house staff secretary sent email to lawyer saying she needs evidence biden consented before authorizing a mechanical signature. one of the people who received the email, deputy white house counsel reportedly sent the message to the chief of staff through the white house counsel's office michael, thoughts on how to handle this?

he does not review the warrant. biden told the "new york times" earlier this year that he verbally approved every clemency decision even if he did not personally sign the warrant because he said there were a lot of them. biden was recently seen with a bandage on his head. a spokesperson for the former president says he underwent surgery used to treat skin cancer, lawrence, ainsley, and brian. >> brian: do you think that's it? too many for joe biden to sign? that was the problem or do we look at the communications here and says one of the lines is joe biden doesn't review warrants. >> lawrence: incredible. that's the white house counsel's office expressing concern during this back and forth. so even his own people internally, based on the emails we see, were concerned about what was happening. >> ainsley: auto pen is supposed to be used for if you had a thousand letters from little kids that want a letter back from the president. stamp it, use the auto pen.

you should know who the warrants are for, you should know who you are pardoning. >> brian: staff secretary certify feldman the white house staff secretary, in this communication, in the morning, i'm going to need an email from the deputy distant rosa on original chain confirming the president signs off on the specific documents when they are ready feldman wrote. and they wrote, michael, they go back and forth and he says well, thoughts on how to handle this, they ask michael posada, he said the president doesn't review the warrants. okay. talk to steph. they are talking right around the president as the pardons are flying out. they are letting out murderers, giving them clemency. it's crazy. >> ainsley: president only one ha has the power to do it. they don't have the power to do it. the 'president is the only one. should we go back and rescind these? are they illegal? >> brian: what else did he not sign off? fracking ban? >> lawrence: didn't know anything about it. meanwhile, carley has the other

news. >> carley: important update to get to here. today the families of texas flood victims are joining governor greg abbott as he signs a new carp safety bill into law it. aims to make children's camp safer by banning cabins from being built in dangerous flood zones. it also requires them to have detailed emergency plans, trained workers, and upto dated alert systems. this move comes two months after at least 135 people were killed bee catastrophic flooding in central texas including 27 children though ho attended camp mystic. happening today president trump is expected to sign executive order to change the pentagon's name back to the department of war. this switch is part of the warrior ethos campaign backed by the president and defense secretary pete hegseth. >> we won world war i and we won world war ii not with the department of defense but with a war department. the department of war. as the president has said, we're not just defense. we're offense. we're reestablishing at the

department the warrior ethos. we want warriors. folks that understand how to exact lethality on the enemy. >> carley: the change would also mean secretary hegseth could officially refer to as the secretary of war. this will be the 200th order president trump has signed in his second term. and an out-of-control brawl breaking out at the packed alaska state fair with one man pulling out a gun, but a heroic bystander stepped in taking it away and helping police prevent a tragedy. it. [shouting] >> carley: that hero by stander telling us this earlier on "fox & friends first." >> there were a lot of children around us. a lot of parents, a lot of families. there was a lot of people working right there, and i just

didn't want anybody to get hurt. so i decided right then and there that i was going to do what i needed to do. >> and he did it. he says multiple people who were there that day have reached out thanking him for taking action. speaking of taking action, the "wall street journal" reporting president trump has approved the ufc's fight card to take place on the white house south lawn in june of next year. ufc chief executive dana white visited the white house last week with plans to pitch the event pairing the flights with several days of festivities on the national mall including fighter weigh-s in on the steps of the lincoln memorial. one trump spokesman saying this will be one of the greatest and most historic sports events in history and president trump hosting it at the white house is a testament to his vision to celebrate america's monumental 250th anniversary. and historic it will be happening in one year's time, guys. >> ainsley: we should take the show. set up the curvy couch right there. >> brian: let's bring a screw

gun and help with the octagon assembly. >> carley: and have a fight with us. a bounce house fight. >> ainsley: set it up right there in the rose garden. >> carley: it will be great. >> lawrence: didn't brian do the first ufc. >> brian: i did the first four. i was the first ring reporter. i also did play-by-play on the second one and third one. >> ainsley: did you get any blood splattered on you? >> brian: jim brown did. 450-pound sumo roast the karate guy. one move straight ahead and you wear a thong. [laughter] >> brian: the third time the guy steps asidekicks his teeth out. the teeth go on jim brown's notes. it was crazy. i'm thinking to myself what's going on? and immediately the sumo guy goes i quit. so he goes to get out and the gracys, says you can't leave. i can only get knocked out or choked out.

i'm going i'm not sure it's going to help my career too much. now we have rounds and weighted classes and a lack of sumo. >> ainsley: maybe we can go to the white house when this fight happens on the fourths of july. check in with steve he is having breakfast with friends in new jersey, no thongs and no teeth are coming out. [cheers and applause] >> steve: that's right. we hope. ainsley, brian and lawrence we are here at the chitchat diner. this is my new friend that i'm having breakfast with what's your first name? >> sandy. >> steve: sandy, i'm thinking about for breakfast i'm thinking about the taylor ham. >> absolutely. >> steve: what does that tell you. >> we are from north jersey. >> steve: we are. i have lived here 31 years taylor ham is what? >> best ham ever. >> steve: how do you describe it? >> savory. >> steve: savory and delicious i heard about it during the sopranos. we're here at the chitchat diner.

nice to see you all. they showed up today because we are talking about politics. in one hour, the guy who actually could be the first republican to be the governor says chris christie is going to be joining us life. the reason i bring that up. is because in is a very blue state. this is marco, he is politics. marco, do you ever -- you are a republican in a very democrat state. >> absolutely. >> steve: how do you get up in the morning? >> i get up and i put on a smile and hopefully i can drive the democrats a little bit crazy. >> steve: drive them a little crazy. that's all. all right. listen, jack is going to be for that an hour. there is a possibility that he could actually win. we're going to talk to more of the folks about that. hey, everybody, say hello. live from hackensack, new jersey, it's "fox & friends." >> brian: thanks so much, steve. >> ainsley: taylor ham the first time. country ham, salted ham.

>> brian: and it's savory. >> ainsley: savory. >> brian: president trump ramping up the pressure on europe as he looks to get a ukraine peace deal done. what about his conversation yesterday with zelenskyy? we will talk to general jack keane on his plan going forward. - hi, i'm john walsh. if you're suffering from aches and pains like me, then you should be taking omegaxl, a natural, drug-free joint relief supplement

>> after phone call with ukrainian president zelenskyy today do you plan to speak with russia's president putin in the near future. >> i will be, yeah. i will be. we are having a very good dialogue. i settled seven wars. the one that i thought would be maybe one of the easiest. you know that feeling you? think one thing is going to be easy. it turns out to be a little bit tougher. >> brian: much tougher. president trump working to secure that peace deal and now ramping up the pressure on european allies to stop buying russian oil. funding the war in ukraine. he says it's about a billion dollars. it comes after putin cozied up with exa president xi and north korean leader kim jong un and 34 other leaders in china this week. two of america's top adversaries coming together against us. let's bring in retired four star general jack keane. i was surprised the general has said he has had good dialogue with president putin. putin has been stringing us along. >> well, i think he likely has had good dialogue with putin. you know, in terms of the relationship itself. because you know, putin talks

peace in those conversations, talks returning to a geopolitical relationship with the united states for mutual benefit, particularly in terms of our economies. and going forward. i think he talks all of that. but, and he promises things that are going to take place like a bilateral meeting followed by a trilateral meeting. bilateral with zelenskyy and putin. but he doesn't follow through on it. he makes promises, but he doesn't keep them. and i think we're at a point now where we have got to recognize that we have got push him in the direction of the peace process. he's not going to voluntarily do it. he is not going to go to a cease-fire and he doesn't look like he is willing to make any major compromises that would make sense in terms of establishing a permanent peace agreement. and we're going to likely have to change his behavior and force him into it. having the europeans stop buy all of the stuff in that direction. slapping sanctions on from the united states on anybody that's doing that not just india but

also china, venezuela and other countries, turkey is doing it. makes no sense that nato ally continues to do it like the other europeans. yeah, i think we are at that point now where we have to recognize that putin is ming us with positive discussions with the president. >> brian: arm them up in order to bring peace. they have to understand that's the adversary we are dealing with so people at home can see it. china takes -- spends 229 million on russian oil, discount for them. india 140 million now getting 50% tariff for that turkey, nato ally 95 million. european union 74. and brazil 21. they all should be getting secondary sanctions right away. especially after the scene we saw this week with vladimir putin and the russian leader trying to describe a new world order. your thoughts on what you witnessed with the 10,000 man parade in china? >> well, look it, i mean, we

have been used to these adversarial countries and their own country having these very familiar choreographed, goose stepping robotic soldiers bran issue inning all the modern weapons that they have of war. what is different about it is not the parade itself. is the fact that the symbolology of those countries coming together. the most significant geopolitical shift that has taken place between the trump administration's first term and the trump administration's second term is what we witnessed there. and that is the collusion, the cooperation, and the coordination that four countries have had. three countries represented there, china russia and obviously what -- excuse me. what has taken place with north korea and iran that the major geopolitical shift. we have to recognize that this alliance is real and we can see it manifested in ukraine.

they are all in on russia succeeding in ukraine. they know if russia loads they lose. that is the world. and they want to replace the united states and like-minded democracies in the world today of having major influence. they want to have their own spear of influence. in their regions, but work together, also, to change the global influence that the united states has in the world. that was the message that they were saying. the president got the message. he got it. you're conspiring against us. message received. >> brian: bolster all our forces and support around the european and nato nations and make sure japan and south korea get more military support and offensive weaponry than they ever have had before. there is going to be military exercises today. i think that's important. something else i think is an issue, especially for you who cares so much about our history. today, the president will make it official. it's going to be back to the department of war instead of the

department of defense. do you like this move? >> well, first, i'm less concerned about the name. i'm more concerned about what the defense or the war department stands for. and that is we have to be prepared to fight and win our nation's wars. that is job one. and the truth is, as we stand here today, given the atrophy that took place on the 9/11 wars, the kneecapping of the defense budgets under biden and under obama excuse me and flat defense budgets under biden. we have got a lot of work to get to that status that we can -- that he would absolutely prepared to win wars against our adversaries particularly dealing with china and the grouping of these nations together. why did we change from war department to the defense department? you got to go back to the feelings that existed at post world war ii. close toe 100 million people killed as a result of the adversary nations.

everybody at the time had war ministries, war offices, or war departments after world war ii because people wanted peace and stability and deter war from happening they moved to defense departments or ministries of defense. there is not a single prominent nation today that has a war department. why? because they wanted to move away from the aggressive connotation of war department had and the imperial nature of it. the the adversaries war departments japan and germany were afrikaan fest. we're not afrikaan quest. that was the reason the congress made to the the change. reflecting that thought process. what i'm concerned about be prepared to fight and win our nation's wars and we have got to get a lot of work to get us back to that status. >> brian: gotcha. general jack keane, have a fantastic weekend. speaking of the weekend coming up on one nation amongst my roster of guest douglas murray trying to make sense of all of this craziness.

curtis sliwa will he back out? >> and battle in congress as well as tomi lahren, they will all be joining us on one nation. coming up on fox nation september 27th, we're going to have an opportunity to go with lawrence jones to richmond, virginia streamed live, and pottstown west virginia. brian kilmeade.com. coming up on this show coming up quick first major election since president trump returned to the white house. steve is getting a pulse of the people in new jersey. steve? >> steve: hey, brian, i just talked to the owners here and as soon as we eat a all the desert they are going to put lobster here in the big case. hey, people in new jersey, who wants to talk on tv next?

>> lawrence: so the democrat attorney general for washington, d.c. has filed a lawsuit against the trump administration to end the national guard deployment in the nation's capital. despite trump's crime crackdown showing major results. fox news contributor and retired nypd inspector paul mauro joins us now. so, paul, good morning to you. the numbers speak for themselves. you got kids that were missing. you got multiple, dozens of guns taken off the streets, criminal aliens as well. >> yeah. and let's be clear, it's not the national guard that's going out

and doors and making arrests. this is going to be the normal metro police in d.c. what is going on the deployment of the national guard has freed up the metro police to do the kind of stuff that you are talking about, the problem for the administration is the posse come at that time tis act post civil war sets a distinction between the military and civil law enforcement. and those two leans are not supposed to cross. that's where the lawsuits from the attorney general of washington, d.c. in and we will have to see how it goes. it has been assigned to a biden judge. and i think that the truth of the matter is that it's going to be a little bit of an uphill climb here for the federal government. >> lawrence: meanwhile, paul, you are at crime con in denver. what's going on there? >> this is an interesting thing a convention of not only true crime stuff but policing and crime world at large. they have these panels. today there is going to be some on things like new developments in forensic technology.

best responses to active shooter. but then there is also going to be a series of panels on various cases that have hit the news where they are going. what the legal vectors are and investigatory vectors are in these cases. and fox news and fox nation, i should say is really at ground zero of this thing. one of the case they are going to be looking at is the jonbenet ramsey case. fox nation is airing a 3-part show on that that's up now. believe it or not, l.j., there is actually potential movement in that case-to-due to the advances in dna technology. >> lawrence: i had the opportunity talk to jonbenet's father yesterday. he believes this is going to open that case wide open. >> yeah. my understanding is that he is meeting today with investigatory authorities out here. and is he going to get an update. i'm going to be talking to him tonight at crimecon to get the first update from him subsequent to his meeting it does sound

like possibility, dna profile at that scene comes back to a mailing. they are hoping that things like genetic genealogy and some of the other advances in culture and dna may get them where they want to be. that seems to be a cutting edge issue and coming out of this crime con here in denver and fox nation. so, you know, you really want to make sure you tune into that. it's up now. >> lawrence: of course fox nation has exqulowive right to that new jonbenet documentary. new exclusive information. also we have exclusive access to crimecon today, paul, you will be doing coverage there sunday and today. get that exclusive access to all the sessions streaming live and can you go on demand fox nation.com. paul, good luck out there brother. >> thank you.
